A Persimmon for Bow

'
It is fall. The leaves are changing colors. 


And the persimmons are ripening and falling to the ground.


Many other animals are enjoying the persimmons, but I managed to snag one for Bow.


They say you should wait until after the first big frost to harvest the persimmons, but we have not yet had our first frost, and they are almost all gone. I see their seeds scattered on the road embedded in  animal droppings. And this one was so ripe that it split open and some of the juice dribbled on my hand.



Bow enjoyed the persimmon so much that this is all that was left of it in the end.


I'm glad we did not wait for the first frost.
